Simpson Bay:--- Honor to whom honor is due. That seemed to have been the theme when the Princess Juliana International Airport (PJIA) honored three members of its staff as Employees of the Month, Friday afternoon in a ceremony to which the spouses, friends, family, and PJIA colleagues of the honorees had been invited.Receiving the awards were, Ana Cairo-Reyes, of the Finance and Accounts Department (FAD), for Employee of the Month, May; Philmore Watson of Air Traffic Services (ATS) for Employee of the Month, June; and Mauricio Webster of Rescue & Fire Fighting (RFF) for Employee of the Month, July.
Following congratulatory speeches by their respective heads and representatives of departments, including Lyndon Hodge, Fireman 2nd, RFF, Lloyd Hinds, manager of the Radar Control Department, and an address by Managing Director, Regina LaBega, the honorees received tokens of appreciation consisting of gift baskets and an envelope each. The contents of each envelope were left to the imagination of those in attendance and a warm reception capped the ceremony.
In her brief remarks, Ms. LaBega pointed to the honorees as role models and encouraged other staff to continue to do their best.
